What is the coat of arms for the new bishop of Jackson, Mississippi. He was named today/ He is Reverend Joseph Kopacz, Ph.D.

  Since he was just appointed today I’m sure it hasn’t been designed yet.

  Why do you keep asking me? May I suggest you contact the bishop-elect or the diocese of Jackson. They will likely not publish his coat of arms until after he is installed as bishop.

    You’re not bothering me. You’re simply asking for information from a source that has no means of getting you that information. I am not involved in the creation of the bishop elect’s coat of arms.
